i havent heard of it but 'drake' could be derived from "draco" which is latin for "dragon" and being in a dragon dicussion it seems more likely.

also mortis... *thinks back to school wishing she listened more in latin class* either means life or death but will now be irrated by that so i am noting it down and will post if i work it out x :)

i think i cracked it!!!!!

ok... so it DID annoy me so i rooted out my old books and...
mortis means dead/death in latin e.g "libris mortis" means "the book of the undead" (d&d) and "in articulo mortis" means "at the point of death"

ok now draco... erm i already said i think it means dragon in latin and also the greeks thought draco as the repesentation of the dragon 'Ladon' that Hera set to guard the golden apples of Hesperides!!!


AM I RIGHT?!?!?! please let me know!!!

also here is another latin thing... "ab insomni non custodita Dracone"
enjoy lol :D :D
